Hip Interactive gets the hop on Xbox.

By IGN Staff

Hip Interactive, Canada's leading multi-channel provider of PC and video games, has today announced the launch of "Hip Gear", a proprietary line of video game accessories for all next generation consoles, including Xbox.

"We are pleased with the market reaction to the Hip Gear" brand, says Morey Chaplick, the acting CEO of Hip. "This segment represents significantly improved margins for our distribution business and a substantial opportunity for the future."

Products will include various controllers, memory cards, cable devices, storage items, and remote control devices. No word yet on exactly when Hip plans to "get down" with Xbox, but we'd suspect zero hour -- November 8th.
